RE: Just got to ask.
Mine always asks "another rifle, you can only shoot one at a time". I respond "another pair of shoes you can only wear one pair at a time". This usually shuts her up fast
She doesn't understand hunting and never will, she actually roots for the deer to "win" when I'm out.

I consider Kare the voice of reason in our family. If I want some thing new/different in the way of a muzzle loader, scope or any huntingwhat not I don't have to sneek out and buy it. Usally if Iexplain the reason to her, it is a go. She has bought me a rifle because she heard me telling a friend I wanted such and such caliber and saw one with beautiful wood so bought it for me. She bugged the ickens out of me when i looked at a usedcustom Remington 700 in 300 mag till I went back and bought it.
She allows me to take off for deer camp for 2 weeks,where I have been hunting alone in over 6 square miles for several years now, with out complaint or orders to call every other day.
So how is yor wife/lady friend when it comes to buying new stuff or going hunting?
Also would you itch to the whole forum what a itch she is if she reins you in?
There is a reason that I ask.

RE: Just got to ask.
My wife enjoys the outdoors. She loves to fish, so I take her fishing A LOT in the summer.

She also enjoys deer hunting (rifle) - so I usually take her a day or three.
Consequently, she understands about needing the right equipment.
Being frugal myself, I don't feel the need for many guns, but when it's time to get a different one, she understands and supports me.
No, I wouldn't complain publicly if she didn't.

"If I'm doing the paying, I'm doing the saying!!"
A quote froma fellow I heard one day. Believe he's been married about a half dozen times.
Actually my wife doesn't give me a lot of lip service, we communicate and get along great. If I or she wants something within reason we discuss and decide.I guess that has helped us survive 12 years together.

RE: Just got to ask.
My Rosie is a jewel. She knows I'm nuts about guns, hunting and fishing and just goes along with the flow. The only problem I have with her is her total inability to answer a yes or no question with a "yes" or a "no". (Maybe it's a female thing.) Example: Question - "Honey, do you want to go out for dinner tonight?" Answer - "There'ssome lasagna in the freezer from last month that will take an hour to defrost."

RE: Just got to ask.
Ok the reason I ask. Most all my friends have the same type relation ship with their wives as I have with mine. There is a person on this forum that is forever whining about his wife in just about every post. I'm having a hard time not saying how I feel. . I know if I was his wife and I read thewhining he does I would burn the bed with him in it some night.
Kare doesn't keep Mary Kay rolling in high cotton, nor does she want to keep the diamond factorys profit margin high. Least I can do is give her what little she wants when ever I can. Talking about her like she was an egg sucking dogs isn't some thing I would do either.
If she was a real pain in the rear I would just shut up as I was the one who married her.
